I would get a white with willow interior, instead of black.
But yea, I prefer DG over all.

i had the same choice.

to me the black one looks better in the day, and the white one looks a lot better at night. the white one just stands out at night.

i ended up getting the white one since well there are a lot more black ones out there. got it with wheat interior.

Here's what it breaks down to for me:

Black is much nicer, especially after the car is waxed and given a wet look. To me, IP is more of a feminine color LOL. However, Black is so hard to keep clean and avoid visible swirls.

So if you are willing to work hard and right to keep a black car clean, my vote goes for black! It's deddd sexxy =P

Black looks fantastic when totally detailed but is a nightmare to maintain unless you want to work on detailing your car every single night. I've had 3 black cars in a row and now have a Caribbean Blue Coupe. I don't have as much time to detail my car as I used to. Your choice also depends on where you live. Black is way too hot down here in FL. White is safer because it is easier for other drivers to see. White is more feminine than black, but with the right set of wheels and some other visual mods it can look aggressive as well. I agree that white looks good at night, while black sometimes can be almost invisible.

I prefer IP. Black is beautiful but requires more maintenance.

"If beauty was a color... it would be black."
I like both colors on the G. Alot more people are getting black. But I like black.

I wash the car every week so keeping it clean is no prob for me.

Personally I chose IP even though a part of me wanted Black...However, the difference of a clean Black G vs. Clean IP G during the day was not enough to erase the deficit in how sexy the IP looks at night in comparison to black...IP/Graphite would be my suggestion...And to all the people who worship the dark side, I do occasionally drool over a clean waxed black G...lol

Black.......Black.........Black. IP is nice, but Black looks mean!!!! White is a safe color to get, you would match with the many other white cars out there. ie, white business van and trucks. Just my 2 pennies. If you don't mind or are already planning to clean your car once a week, then you should be ok with Black. Your car doesn't have to be nice and shiny every single moment of the week, unless your a total car freak. So cleaning weekly should be good enough.
